The Cyborg continued his work on the engine sometimes positioning himself in funny angles as he tore apart and repaired the engine. [color=aba000]“Boss there isn't much more we can do with these engines, we don't have the parts or the time.”[/color] Victor knew there wasn't much he could do now with these. The other lady seemed focused on the shield generators and the girl disappeared below deck. At least this place was starting to shape up better already, and he could feel the ships' performance increasing as the power flow from the reactor seemed to even out and disperse to the other sub systems correctly. Turning his attention to the other ladies remark, “[color=0072bc]If you want me to believe you and your 8 plus years of engineering work then you ought to show me, how am I to know if you are not just all talk.” [/color]if he could smile he would be. A small noise indicated to him that Sara had found something, “[color=0072bc]what is it[/color]” He had paused near the engines inspecting the reactor core, “[color=aba000]I found something strange or a few things actually[/color]” a slight pause from both of them as the A.I. was thinking. [color=aba000]“There's a sealed room above us. there are several systems there but I cant reach them as if someone didn't want them to be fixed.”[/color] another pause, [color=aba000]“there is also no A.I. for this ship, there're traces and whispers of where something once was but no more.” [/color]He processed this information thoroughly and was quickly reminded of the fight outside with a sudden jolt of the ship. [color=0072bc]“Was that the away team?”[/color] Sara Replied, [color=aba000]“yes and no, we connected with a bolt of plasma from the other ship but it seems intentional.”[/color] [color=0072bc]“One thing at a time Sara first lets try to find out about that room, would you please mark the outline on my screen.” [/color]To be honest Victor didn't need a screen he could just be aware of his surroundings at all times, but he liked this view of a screen it was more natural to him even if it as a bit limiting in some ways. Still, Sara lit up a red outline above them, 30ft up was the room, it only had one door which was covered and sealed and the catwalk to it seemed to be removed. He knew right away that this room was sealed on purpose unfortunately there were damaged components in that room, and he was tasked with fixing them. With a quick thought and proper placement the metal man shot two grappling hooks up into the surrounding support beams that hauled him up to where he was level with the sealed compartment. To give whoever sealed the room credit he would not have noticed it for some time without Sara. After a brief moment of scanning Sara gave him a firing solution two plasma shots at half power would be enough to vaporize the cover and door as well as allow him the room to enter. With this solution being accepted, the other solutions were quickly dismissed. Two plasma cannons popped up from their concealed positions on the mans shoulders and began to charge. Blue light swirled around the 2-foot barrel before being released with a small pop and a sizzle. Both shots landing one after the other with a sizzle and a shower of sparks and molten metal onto the deck down below. The edges of the metal door and cover glowed bright orange before fading to red and then to black. Victor was careful as he climbed through the jagged edges of the door, his night vision switched on with the only light being red emergency lights. The room was old and dusty not even the robots were able to get into this room. The compartment was filled with console screens and towers made for data storage, [color=0072bc]“Sara what am I looking at?” [/color]the A.I. was silent for a moment, [color=aba000]“this room and its computers functions are that of Data storage and active countermeasure. Why this room was sealed is beyond me, perhaps it doesn't meet the aesthetic of the outside ship. Boss there is a location here that could support my A.I. crystal.”[/color] the import was highlighted in the dark. Victor moved up to it and hesitated only for a moment, “[color=0072bc]if you think it's for the best[/color]” again he was wondering about this, she was after all his only real friend, [color=aba000]“Don't worry ill leave a part of myself here with you but I could do so much more for this ship and its crew if I were a part of it[/color]” Victor still seamed reluctant to let her go but eventually caved in. A small port opened on the right side of his head where one would find an ear. The small crystals held his A.I. no his friend within. Still, reluctantly he inserted the chip into the slot which quickly pulled back into the data banks it was extended from. Suddenly without warning the data banks lit up with sound and lights. Main power was restored to the room and multiple subsystems began to come to life. The counter measures and consoles began to light up and power on, consoles lit up with radar signatures and red error messages rippled across the screens. [color=aba000]“Boss”[/color] the A.I. called out from the console near him, [color=0072bc]“the anti missile and anti fighter systems are online but blocked by the added armor of the ship. I need you to manually activate the systems so they can clear the armor that's blocking them.”[/color] a red button appeared on the console with the words 'push me' engraved in it. this time he didn't hesitate with one swift action he pressed the button before continuing on to fix more electronics in the room. The power supply surged for a moment as consoles and lights flickered across the ship. Suddenly hundreds of blue sparks could be seen across the exterior of the ship, these sparks were slowly moving in a circular pattern cutting away small round chunks of armor from the ship. After a few moments the holes were made and small laser turrets, missile turrets, and flare tubes popping up in a random order. For a few moments they did nothing then almost as if coming online all at once they began to open fire on the smaller fighters that were engaging the ship. Lasers missiles and Flares all fired and launched, tracking and targeting both incoming missiles and enemy fighters. Victor decided to inform the bridge crew what he had just done, “[color=0072bc]Hey beautiful if you don't give me a name I'm just ganna keep calling you names[/color]” he was speaking to the pilot before he spoke to the others, [color=0072bc]“so you are all aware, my A.I. Sara has been uploaded to this ships main frame if you need anything she will be happy to help, also I found a sealed room that had the countermeasure console in it so I got those working. Sara has them firing at the closest targets but you can tell her to target other things if you want. Other than that I can't get any more power out of the engines what we got is what we got, the shields are starting to come back online a bit more and the other girls are helping with that. My next move is to start working on the power core once again. That's all I got, Engineering out”[/color] with that he cut the chatter and returned to his work.
